BIAGINI, Beatriz  e  GONCALVES, Fábio Peres. Experimental activities in the early years of elementary school: analysis on a backdrop with blind students. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2017, vol.19, pp.468-489. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172017190013.

The research’s purpose is to investigate limits and potentialities of an experimental activities methodology for teaching and learning in Natural Science in a class of 3rd-year elementary school attended by seers and one blind student. The proposal was based on literature discussions. The sources of information for qualitative analysis were video recordings of lessons and written records of students. The information analysis, guided by procedures of Discursive Textual Analysis, has identified potentialities for group work learning and explicitness of the students’ knowledge on the subjects under study. There were limits on the questioning of the initial knowledge in favor of reflections on the remarks, the participation of the blind student in experimental procedures and promotion of debates.
